Day-to-day use
Does Cloketa handle flexible schedules?
Yes. For each day, a flexible schedule sets an expected duration, an opening window, core hours and a minimum break. The worker clocks freely within the opening window and Cloketa compares his time clocked with the expected duration.
- Creation: in Schedules, choose “Flexible schedule”. For each working day, enter the expected duration (for example 7 h 36), the opening window (for example 7:00 – 19:00), the core hours when attendance is required and the minimum break.
- Limits: the suggested maximum durations are the legal limits of 9 hours a day and 45 hours a week (article 20ter of the Labour Act of 16 March 1971). You can lower them. To raise them in a specific case, such as a collective agreement, Cloketa warns you and asks for a confirmation, kept in the audit log.
- Tracking: a flexible schedule is always assigned in “Actual clocking” mode. The worker sees his time for the day “of 07:36 expected” and the time of his core hours.
- Checks: reports list the days and weeks above the maximums, and reminders flag an absence during core hours, a limit reached or a minimum break not taken. Nothing is corrected automatically.
- Hours counter: if it is switched on, each day feeds the worker's credit/debit balance (see “How does the hours counter work?”).
The law requires the rules of the flexible schedule to be set out in the work rules. Cloketa provides the time tracking; the work rules remain your responsibility. Our flexible schedules guide offers a model annex to adapt with your social secretariat.
